CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is a U.S. national stage under 35 U.S.C. § 371 of International Application No. PCT/CN2016/100183, filed on Sep. 26, 2016, designating the United States of America, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure generally relates to a system and method for presenting statements (also referred to as online financial reports), and more particularly, to a system and method for presenting statements using user-defined interfaces.

BACKGROUND

As a way of data presentation, statements are used in various types of software, such as financial software, accounting software, tax software, and banking professional software, etc. Statements may be presented offline or online. The online presentation of statements is used for data sharing among communities, groups, enterprises, companies, departments, and users. Data presented in the statements may be obtained from various sources.

Existing methods for presenting online statements are mostly fixed (e.g., presenting a fixed statement). Accordingly, the data presented in the statement are not flexible. For example, sometimes certain data are not required by a user, but the user cannot change or delete them because of the fixed format, and they cannot change or add data they need as well. At the same time, the presentation methods of data are fixed. For example, the data can only be presented to a user in a predetermined format, while the user may want a more dynamic or flexible method of data presentation, such as by adding histograms, sector diagrams, animations, or videos, or the like. In addition, the data sources of the data presented in the online statement are also fixed. At present, the data sources provided by the application providers are normally default data sources. And the user may want a user-defined way of statement presentation to define the data source of the statements themselves. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a system and method of statement presentation, in which data items may be added or deleted flexibly, data presentation methods may be changed, and data sources may be more flexible and diverse.

FIG. 1 is an exemplary diagram illustrating a statement presentation system. A statement presentation system 100 may be configured to input and/or modify a statement file 110. For example, an edit box may be configured in the statement presentation system 100 for editing the statement file 110. Some attributes of the statement file 110 may be modified in the edit box. The statement presentation system 100 may be configured to extract, process, and present data of the statement file 110. The statement presentation system 100 may extract data related to a statement from the statement file 110, operate and process the data, and present the data in the form of a statement.

The statement 110 may include one or more layout files. In some embodiments, the layout files may be used to illustrate or specify extraction methods of the statement data. For example, the layout file may be used to illustrate or specify a source of the statement data by designating a data source 230 of the statement presentation system 100 (shown in FIG. 2) as the source of the statement data.

In some embodiments, the layout files may be used to illustrate the operation and processing method of the statement data. For example, the layout file may set the method of calling the third-party program interface, or call the executable program or library file programmed by a third-party program to process the data.

In some embodiments, the layout file may also be used to illustrate the presentation or rendering of the statement data (raw data or processed data). For example, the statement data may be presented by multimedia, including videos, audios, animations, or the like, or any combination thereof. As another example, the statement data may be presented using various diagrams, including histograms, column diagrams, scatter diagrams, pie charts, or the like, or any combination thereof.

FIG. 2 is a schematic block diagram illustrating an example of a statement presentation system. The statement presentation system 100 may be configured to input and/or modify the statement file 110. The statement presentation system 100 may be configured to extract, process, and present the statement data. The statement presentation system 100 may include a statement browser 210, a statement generation engine 220, and a data source 230. Some or all of the above-mentioned modules may process the statement file 110. In other words, some or all of these modules may access the statement file 110, such as read and write the statement file 110. The statement file 110 may also be configured to illustrate or specify the method of accessing or processing the statement browser 210, the statement generation engine 220, or the data source 230.

“Module” of the present application refers to a kind of logic or a set of software instructions stored in hardware and firmware. The “module” referred to herein may be executed by software and/or hardware module, or be stored in any non-temporary computer-readable media or other storage devices. In some embodiments, a software module may be compiled and connected to an executable program. The module disclosed in the present disclosure may respond to the information transmitted by itself or by other modules, and/or may generate a response in response to detecting some events or interrupts. A module configured to be executable on computing equipment (such as a processor 1210 shown in FIG. 12) may be provided on a computer-readable medium (such as a storage 1230 shown in FIG. 12). The computer-readable medium may be optical disk, digital optical disk, flash disk, magnetic disk, or any other tangible media; the computer-readable medium may also obtain software module via digital download (the digital download may also include downloading data stored in RAR or installation package, the execution of which requires uncompressing or decoding beforehand). Some or all of the software codes may be stored in the storage device of the computing equipment performing operations, and be applied to the operation of the computing equipment. The software instructions may be embedded in firmware such as Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EPROM). Obviously, hardware modules may include integrated logical units such as gates, triggers, and/or programmable units (like programmable gate array or processor). The functions of the above-mentioned modules or computing equipment may be preferably executed as software modules, but they may also be configured in hardware or firmware. In general conditions, the modules referred to as logic modules may not be restricted by specific physique or storage. A module may be combined with other modules, or be classified into a set of sub-modules.

The statement presentation system 100 may be integrated such as in the form a central integrated system, or distributed such as in the form of a distributed system. The distributed system may be on the local devices. For example, the modules therein such as the statement browser 210, the statement generation engine 220, and the data source 230, are local. The distributed system may also be on the remote devices. For example, one or some of the modules therein, such as the statement browser 210, the statement generation engine 220, or the data source 230, or any combination thereof, may be placed beyond a certain distance in space, and exchange information remotely. The distance may be greater than or equal to a preset threshold value. For example, the threshold value may be set as 10 kilometers or more, or 5 kilometers or more.

The statement browser 210 and the statement generation engine 220 may exchange information bidirectionally. The statement browser 210 and the data source 230 may exchange information bidirectionally. The statement generation engine 220 and the data source 230 may also exchange information bidirectionally. In some embodiments, the statement browser 210 or the statement generation engine 220 may obtain information from the statement file 110. The obtained information may include information related to the presentation method of the statement contents, information related to the data that is required to be presented in the statement contents, information related to the data source 230, etc.

In some embodiments, information related to the presentation method of the statement contents may include the drawing information of a statement interface. For example, the information may include how to draw a choice box, a dialog box, a button, a map, a calculator, or the like, or any combination thereof, of the statement interface. In some embodiments, information related to the data required to be presented in the statement contents may include data related to the statement file 110, such as various economic or financial data, or the corresponding information of time, index, or combination method related to the economic or financial data.

In some embodiments, the statement file 110 may provide information related to the data source 230. The data source 230 may include one or more databases. The data source 230 may include one or more local databases that may be referred to as an internal data source 232, and/or one or more remote databases that may be referred to as an external data source 234. The remote databases may be accessed via the Internet. In some embodiments, the statement generation engine 220 may obtain information of the data source 230 from the statement file 110. The information may include but not limited to, the data source 230's addresses, locations, interfaces, and/or data formats. And the statement generation engine 220 may obtain required data from the data source 230.

After obtaining required data by communicating with the data source 230, the statement generation engine 220, may process the obtained data. The operations of the data may be performed by a processing module 430 of the statement generation engine 220 (shown in FIG. 5). The operations may be used to extract some attributes of the data, such as time attribute, momentum attribute, and mass attribute. It should be noted that in the data processing module 430, a third-party software tool may be called for data processing. In some embodiments, the data processing module 430 may access to a third-party program such as a language and programming tool, including C, C++, Java, Matlab, Python, R, VBA, etc. These language and programming tools may provide some operations more complex than summation, average, add, subtract, multiply and divide, such as analysis of time series or analysis of frequency-domain. By providing calling interface for the third-party program, the system may conduct more flexible and convenient processing and operation of the statement data.

The statement generation engine 220 may render the processed data. Based on the information related to the presentation method of the statement contents obtained from the statement file 110, the statement generation engine 220 may draw corresponding contents for presentation in the statement browser 210. Render may refer to a presentation in the present disclosure, e.g. a presentation of data with words, charts, graphs, or the like, based on certain rules. In some embodiments, after rendering the processed data, the statement presentation system 100 may transmit the rendered data to an external device (not shown in FIG. 2) for presentation, storage or further processing. The output process may be real-time or non-real-time. The output operation may be executed directly by the statement presentation system 100 or by connected an external device.

FIG. 3 is a schematic block diagram illustrating an exemplary statement browser. The statement browser 210 may include a browser functional area 310 and a browser display area 320. The browser functional area 310 may provide one or more controls, including but not limited to buttons, windows, and menus for operating the browser. In some embodiments, the buttons may be used to operate pages of the browser. In some embodiments, the buttons provided by the browser functional area 310 may support operations related to viewing and analyzing economic data.

The menu provided by the browser functional area 310 may be a pull-down menu or a non-pull-down menu. In some embodiments, the menu may be hybrid, e.g. some items of the menu may be menus as well.

The window provided by the browser functional area 310 may be hierarchical, e.g. a window may include one or more sub-windows. The window may not be hierarchical. The window may be a pop-up window, e.g. the window may pop up after a corresponding button is clicked. The window may be dynamic, e.g. the windows may be dragged to other places. The window may be static, e.g. the window may remain in a fixed place of the screen. The window may display text and multi-media files including videos, animations, audios, etc.

Based on a predefined format, the browser display area 320 may define how the windows may be placed and superimposed together in the location required by the layout file. In some embodiments, the upper part of the browser may be designated as the browser functional area 310, and the lower part of the browser may be designated as the browser display area 320. The setting of the browser display area 320 may vary with different economic data. Obviously, those skilled in the art, after understanding the basic principles of the statement presentation method and system, may modify or vary the form and details of the statement browser 210 without departing from the principles. The modifications and variations are still within the scope of the current disclosure described above.

FIG. 4 is a schematic block diagram illustrating an exemplary statement generation engine. The statement generation engine 220 may include a statement rendering module 410, a layout analyzing module 420, a data processing module 430, etc. The statement rendering module 410 may be configured to present statement contents, draw a statement interface, and/or present data related to the statement file 110 according to the disclosure of the layout file. For example, the statement rendering module 410 may draw windows of the browser functional area 310 and the browser display area 320. In some embodiments, the statement rendering module 410 may draw a function bar, a scroll bar, a menu, or the like, or any combination thereof, of the window. In some embodiments, the statement rendering module 410 may define the settings of some buttons, such as the location, length, width, or character size of the buttons.

The layout analyzing module 420 may be configured to analyze the layout file, and to verify the locations of each control as well as the related data formats. The controls mentioned above may include frames, buttons, menus, windows, dialog boxes, or the like, or any combination thereof. The related data formats may include Boolean values, floating point numbers, strings, arrays, sets, lists, records, tables, or the like, or any combination thereof. The data formats may be self-defined (e.g. program-defined or user-defined). For example, a user may define the data format of an object. The object may refer to a data set containing computer-recognizable and executable codes and ASCII characters. As another example, if a menu item with a size of 500×300 pixels is set by the layout file to be placed on the top of the browser functional area 310, the layout analyzing module 420 may analyze relevant descriptions of the layout file, and a layout rendering module may then draw it in the corresponding place of a presentation interface.

The data processing module 430 may support data extraction and processing. In some embodiments, the data processing module 430 may extract contents related to data extraction and processing from the layout file. In some embodiments, the layout analyzing module 420 may transmit some or all of the contents of the layout file to the data processing module 430. In some other embodiments, the statement rendering module 410 may transmit some or all of the contents of the layout file to the data processing module 430, and the data processing module 430 may then extract contents related to the data extraction and processing therefrom.

Obviously, those skilled in the art, after understanding the basic principles of the information required for calling interface of the third-party program, may modify or vary the contents of the required information without departing from the principles. The modifications and variations are still within the scope of the current disclosure described above. For example, in some embodiments, the output data of the calling interface of the third-party program may be transmitted directly to the data processing module 430 for processing.

FIG. 5 is a schematic block diagram illustrating an exemplary data processing module. The data processing module 430 may include a data processing interface 510, a data operation unit 520, and a data source interface 530. The data processing interface 510 may pre-process data transmitted by the statement rendering module 410 and/or the layout analyzing module 420. In some embodiments, the data processing interface 510 may analyze the type of the data source 230 that is required by the data. For example, the data processing interface 510 may determine that the type of the data source 230 required by the data is an external data source, and then transmit the data to an external data source interface of the data source interface 530 (not shown in FIG. 5). As another example, the data processing interface 510 may determine that the type of the data source 230 required by the data is an internal data source, and then transmit the data to an internal data source interface of the data source interface 530 (not shown in FIG. 5). In some embodiments, the data processing interface 510 may determine the type of the software tool that is required by the data. For example, the data processing interface 510 may determine that the software tool required for data processing is C++, and then transmit data to the data operation unit 520 for a corresponding processing. A detailed description of the processing procedure is provided below.

The data source interface 530 may provide an interface function for various data sources 230. The data sources 230 may be classified into internal data sources and external data sources. The internal data sources may include local database management systems (DBMS) and local storage mediums. The external data sources may include a data source 230 obtained via a network, such as a data source 230 obtained via Wide Area Network (WAN), or a data source 230 obtained via the Internet.

In some embodiments, the data source interfaces 530 of data processing module 430 may support a data extraction. The data source interfaces 530 may be classified into internal data source interfaces (not shown in FIG. 5) and external data source interfaces (not shown in FIG. 5). The data processing module 430 may determine the type of interface by analyzing the property of the data source 230 required to be extracted. For example, if the data source 230 is an internal data source, the data processing module 430 may then call an internal data source interface to create a data connection pool, and transmit instructions and statements related to data extraction to the internal data source interface. As another example, if the locator of the data source 230 is a network address or a network database pointed to by the Uniform Resource Locator (URL), then the data processing module 430 may call an external data source interface to create a data connection pool, and transmit instructions and statements related to data extraction to the external data source interface. In some embodiments, instructions and statements of the data extraction may be SQL statements. In other embodiments, when the database for data extraction is XML database or the like, instructions and statements of the data extraction may be XML statements. The internal data source interface may execute the instructions of data extraction that are stored in the connected database source, and return the result to the data processing module 430.

The internal data source interface and the external data source interface may be implemented by hardware or software. For example, the internal data source interface may be written in a particular programming language. In some embodiments, the internal data source interface may be written in C++ language. In some embodiments, the internal data source interface may be written in XML. For example, the internal data source interface may be generated by inserting LUA Program Block in XML. The external data source interface may include an external database interface. In some embodiments, if the external data source is an external database source, the data processing module 430 may call the external database interface of the data source interface 530 to create the data connection pool, and transmit the instructions and statements of the data extraction to the external database interface. In some embodiments, the instructions and statements of the data extraction may be SQL statements. In some embodiments, when the database for data extraction is XML database or the like, instructions and statements of the data extraction may be XML statements. The external database interface of the data source interface 530 may execute the instructions of data extraction that are stored in the connected database source, and return the result to the data processing module 430.

In some embodiments, the external data source interface of the data source interface 530 may include network data interface. In some embodiments, if the data source 230 is an external data source, such as a network data source, the data processing module 430 may call the network data interface (not shown in FIG. 5), and transmit required contents and format to the network data interface. Based on the received requirement for contents and format, the network data interface may obtain corresponding data from the network and return the result to the data processing module 430. In some embodiments, the network data interface may be implemented by a program written in Python. For example, the network data interface may set the crawling depth and breadth through the program in Python. For example, the network data interface may set crawling rules through the program in Python. In some embodiments, these crawling rules may be written in the layout file generated by a program in XML. In other embodiments, the network data interface may set crawling object, crawling site, crawling mode, or the like, or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the network data interface may be implemented by a program in JavaScript.

The data operation unit 520 may provide functions of data operation and processing. The data may be extracted from the layout file, or from the data source 230 via the data source interface 530. The quantum operations on indexes may be implemented by setting application program interface (API) in the data operation unit 520, and loading specific operation code, compiled operation library, operation tool (e.g. C, C++, JAVA, MATLAB, Python, R, VBA, LUA, etc.), or the like, or any combination thereof.

In some embodiments, the data processing module 430 may call the data operation unit 520 (see descriptions related to FIG. 5 in the present application) to support an operation of the extracted data. It should be noted that the various embodiments of the present disclosure support direct or third-party processing of the various data extracted from the statements. For example, the various embodiments of the present disclosure may include accessing a third-party program such as a language and programming tool, including C, C++, Java, MATLAB, Python, R, VBA, etc. By providing an interface for calling the third-party program, the system may conduct more flexible and convenient processing and operation of the statement data. In some embodiments, the data operation unit 520 may load a specific operation code, a compiled operation database, or a compiled operation tool (C, C++, JAVA, MATLAB, Python, R, VBA, LUA, etc.), or the like, or any combination thereof. The data operation unit 520 may transmit required data to the operation code, the operation database, or the operation tool, and generate a result after the operation.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating an exemplary operation of the statement presentation system. In step 601, a statement file 110 may be obtained from a server via a network or from a local device. The obtained statement file 110 may be transmitted to the statement presentation system 100. A module of the statement presentation system 100, such as the statement generation engine 220, may obtain required information from the statement file 110. The information may be obtained directly (e.g., by reading the statement presentation system 100 via wired or wireless connections). The information may also be obtained indirectly. For example, the information may be obtained through a third-party medium.

In some embodiments, the statement presentation system 100 may include a layout file. The layout file may describe ways of obtaining data and/or presenting statement. The layout file may be stored in one statement file or stored separately in multiple statement files. The layout file may be created by an operator manually, or created in a certain computer language. For example, the layout file is a program file in a certain computer language. In some embodiments, the layout file may be written in a markup language. For example, the layout file may be written in extensible markup languages (XML). Other kinds of computer languages may be embedded in the layout file written in XML in order to call the interface of a third-party program, or to call a library file programed by a third-party program. In some embodiments, some fragments of a script language may be embedded in the layout file written in XML. For example, some fragments in LUA script language may be embedded in the layout file written in XML. For persons having ordinary skills in the art, various variations and modifications may be conducted under the teaching of the present disclosure. However, those variations and modifications may not depart from the spirit and scope of this disclosure. For example, the layout file may be a text file satisfying certain grammar rules and formats that can be recognized by both humans and machines. In such case, a user, such as a programmer, may easily create or modify the layout file. In addition, the data in a statement may be easily extracted, processed and presented by setting specific rules and grammar of programing language.

In some embodiments, the statement file 110 can be modified by the statement presentation system 100 in this step. The modification process may be completed by an operator manually. For example, such modification may be completed by a user. In some embodiments, the user may modify the statement file 110 through the statement browser 210. The modification process may be completed by the system automatically. For example, the statement presentation system 100 may automatically add a required data source to the entered statement file 110 for data search. This embodiment may be applied in the case of adding some default data or some sources of default database in the statement file 110. As another example, the statement presentation system 100 may automatically add a corresponding API to the entered statement file 110 in order to employ a certain operation tool (e.g. via the API) to operate the data.

In some embodiments, the data source of the statement file 110 can be modified. For example, a user may modify the data source of the statement file 110 by modifying a particular website. As another example, the user may modify the data source of the statement file 110 by modifying a particular database. In some embodiments, the layout file may be used to modify the data source. For example, the setting of the layout file may be changed to modify the data source. In some embodiments, the method of data processing of the statement file 110 can be modified. For example, the user may use an operation tool, such as C++, to operate the data by loading a corresponding API.

In step 602, the data of the layout file may be extracted by some modules of the statement presentation system 100, such as the statement generation engine 220. In some embodiments, the extracted data may be obtained from the layout file and/or the data source 230. This extraction may be executed based on the illustration with respect to the extracted data in the statement file 110. In some embodiments, the layout file in the statement file 110 may be used to illustrate or specify the data extracting method in the statement. For example, the layout file may illustrate or specify the source of data by specifying the data source 230. One or more databases may be included in the data source 230. In some embodiments, the data source 230 may be stored at the local device, which referred to as an internal data source 232. The data source 230 may also be accessed via a network, which referred to as an external data source 234. In some embodiments, links to the internal data source 232 or the external data source 234 may be added in the layout file written in XML. The layout file can support the data source 230 that is provided by a program or defined by a user. For example, in a program provided to users, methods of connections to the date source (database or network data) of the program provider may be included. This data source may be referred to as a data source provided by a program. Methods of connections to the data source may be described by the user in the layout file. This data source may be referred to as the data source defined by a user. In some other embodiments, the layout file may support user for obtaining specific data in a specific website from the Internet.

The data extracted by statement generation engine 220 from the statement file 110 may be used to illustrate the statement presentation method. In some embodiments, some of these data may be related to the statement presentation method. For example, one or more attributes of various controls, such as the size and placement of buttons, menus, windows, and the like, in the statement may be specific. In some embodiments, some of these data may be required to be presented, such as some economic and financial data. In some embodiments, some of these data may configure to instruct the data source 230. In some embodiments, some of the data may configure to instruct an operation code, an operation library file or an operation tool loading on demand (C, C++, JAVA, MATLAB, Python, R, VBA, LUA, or the like, or any combination thereof.).

In step 603, the data extracted from the layout file and/or the data source 230 may be operated and processed. The data may be operated and processed either manually by an operator or automatically by the system. The operation of data may be completed by the user. For example, the user may operate the data through calling a loadable operation code, an operation library, or an operation tool. The operation of data may be completed automatically by the system. For example, some economic or financial indicators defined in the layout file may be operated by an assigned formula or an operation tool. In some embodiments, the process of operating and processing data involved in step 603 may be implemented by process 900 shown in FIG. 9. The process of operating and processing data may be executed by the data operation unit 520. The function of operation and processing may be implemented by the calculation functional block of the data operation unit 520. In some embodiments, the function of operation and processing may be implemented by setting API in the data operation unit 520, and loading specific operation code, or compiled operation library, or operation tool (C, C++, JAVA, MATLAB, Python, R, VBA, LUA, etc.), or the like, or any combination thereof.

In step 604, the operated and processed data may be presented in the statement browser 210. In some embodiments, the statement presentation involved in step 604 may be implemented by process 1000 shown in FIG. 10. The data may be presented in different sub-windows set in the window. This presentation may be static. In other words, the sub-windows may not change its position during the presentation. This presentation may also be dynamic. In other words, the sub-windows may change its position during presentation. The data may be presented by multimedia which may be combined with one or more different contents forms, such as videos, audios, animations and the like. The data may be presented by one or more graphics methods, such as histograms, scattergrams, pie charts, line graphs, block diagrams, and the like. The presented data may be exported into different formats for subsequent processing. For example, the presented data may be saved as an Excel file, a Word file, and a Portable Document Format (PDF) file.

In some embodiments, the statement presentation system 100 may render the processed data, and then present, store or further process the data in an external device (such as the display 1250 in FIG. 12). The external device may be a local device or a mobile terminal device, such as a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a mobile phone, a tablet and the like, and it may also be a remote server or a cloud server, etc. The output data may be presented on an electronic display, such as a LED (Light Emitting Diode) display and a LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) display, or a touch screen, such as a resistive touch screen, a capacitive touch screens, a plasma touch screen, a vector pressure sensor touch screen, an infrared touch screen and the like. In particular, the types of display devices may include but is not limited to computers, mobile phones, tablets, electronic watches and the like. The types of the output signal may include a digital signal, a waveform signal, an analog waveform signal, a symbolic signal, a code signal, a speech signal, a video signal, an image signal, and the like. The output process may be a real-time process or a non-real-time process. The output process may be performed directly by the statement presentation system 100, or by a connected external device.

In some embodiments, the step 601 of the process 600 may be implemented by the method of modifying statement file 700 shown in FIG. 7. In step 701, the statement file 110 may be transmitted to the statement browser 210. In some embodiments, the user may set the source code display window of the statement file 110 through the statement browser 210. For example, one or more function buttons may be set in the browser ribbon 310 of the statement browser. Through clicking these function buttons, one or more windows may be popped up as the source code display window of the statement file 110. These function buttons may be configured to launch the functions of compiling, debugging and/or editing the source code. In some embodiments, the statement file 110 may be written in XML. The statement file 110 written in XML may include script language, such as LUA language.

In step 702, the interface settings of data presentation described by the layout file in the statement file 110 may be modified. The modification process may be completed manually. In some embodiments, the user may modify the interface through setting various controls, such as buttons, menus, and windows. In some embodiments, the presentation mode of various graphs may be modified. For example, the horizontal and vertical axes of a histogram may be exchanged. As another example, a histogram may be changed to a scatter plot. The modification process may be completed by the system automatically. In some embodiments, the interface settings of data presentation described by the layout file may be modified by the background program of the statement browser 210. For example, the interface settings of data presentation described in the layout file may be modified to a predefined present mode by the background program of the statement browser 210. As another example, the interface settings of data presentation described by the layout file may be automatically modified by the system to an appropriate display method depending on various types of the display screens (such as mobile phone screens, computer screens, TV screens, outdoor display screens, and so on).

In step 703, the data source 230 of the statement file 110 can be modified. The modification process may be completed by an operator manually. In some embodiments, a user may modify the data source 230 on the source code window for modifying the layout file on the statement browser 210. For example, the user may change a local data source 230 to a remote data source. As another example, user may add a local data source. The modification process may be completed by the system automatically. In some embodiments, the data source 230 may be automatically adjusted by a specific crawler in the statement generation engine 220. The data source 230 meeting particular set conditions (may set by some modules of the statement file 110, such as the statement generation engine 220, or may set manually) may be identified by the crawler through network. Then the identified data source 230 may be added into the layout file by a crawler or other programs.

In step 704, the method of data operation and processing of the statement file 110 may be modified. The modification process may be completed by an operator manually. In some embodiments, a user may modify the method of data operation and processing on the source code window for modifying the layout file on the statement browser 210. The modification process may be completed automatically. For example, the third-party operation tool (such as C, C++, Java, MATLAB, Python, R, VBA, LUA, or the like, or any combination thereof) may be called to modify the way of data processing.

In step 705, the modified statement file 110 may be sorted in a storage area of the statement file 110 (e.g. the storage 1230 in FIG. 12). The stored statement file 110 may be processed further. For example, the statement file 110 may be transmitted to the statement generation engine 220 for further processing, such as extracting and processing data.

Referring back to FIG. 6, in some embodiments, the step 602 of method 600 may be implemented by the data extraction data 800 in FIG. 8. In step 801, the layout file may be transmitted to some modules of the statement presentation system 100, such as the statement generation engine 220.

In some embodiments, Python, an operation tool, may be loaded to operate and process the data. The following is an example of Python code:

For example: extract data of closing price, change, volume of December 16 on the platform of ROYALFLUSH every 15 minutes

-   -   >>> from iFinDPy import *     -   >>> iFinD.FT_iFinDLogin(“THS37000333,”“ifinder”)\\log in     -   >>>         High=iFinD.FTQuerySyn_HighFrequenceSequence(‘300033.SZ’,‘close;volume;chg’,‘CPS:0,Maxpoint:50000,         Fill:Previous,Interval:15’,‘2015-01-01 09:15:00’,‘2015-01-20         15:15:00’)\\request data     -   >>> High.get(‘tables’)[0].get(‘thscode’)\\obtain code     -   >>> High.get(‘tables’)[0].get(‘time’)\\obtain time     -   >>> High.get(‘tables’)[0].get(‘table’).get(‘volume’)\\obtain         volume     -   >>> High.get(‘tables’)[0].get(‘table’).get(‘close’)\\obtain         closing price     -   >>> High.get(‘tables’)[0].get(‘table’).get(‘chg’)\\obtain change

Obviously, those skilled in the art, after understanding the basic principles of the information required for calling interface of the third-party program, may modify or vary the contents of the required information without departing from the principles. The modifications and variations are still within the scope of the current disclosure described above. For example, in some embodiments, the output data of the calling interface of the third-party program may be transmitted directly to the data processing module 430 for processing.

In step 903, the data operation unit 520 may operate and process the input data, and generate a result after operation and processing. In step 904, the operation and processing result is outputted.
